I think you should try to grow a thicker skin if you're going to be the one to break up fights.
I believe, truly, in the Nietzschen concept of dynamism, in that great progress can be made because of conflict.
Senseless conflict can have dastardly effects, but well penned treatise on our own feelings are In my opinion an excelent way to air our grievences...
Conflict is a part of life, no one is name calling or being imature here, you should hang around my bad internet neighborhoods, then you'd really see the bullets fly.
Without conflict, It's doubtfull that any of us would even be here...
As far as touche goes, perhaps all language looses some of its meaning when strained through the lack of intonation rife amoungst the printed word... Its far too much bother to dread though.
